Though this is my personal web site, it is not about me.

You will not encounter my personal fears, existential anguish, or barely controllable rages. Rather this web site is about stuff I find interesting.

Now I guess I should warn you I have an an odd sense of what is interesting, so it might not appeal to you. But check it out anyway.

We might have similar tastes. The site is broken into Categories. Here are some of them.

Little Willie Poems – At the turn of the 19th century Edward Gorey wrote a book called “Ruthless Rhymes for Heartless Homes”. It contains Little Willie poems that are wonderfully morbid. This is a collection of my favorites.

Facebook Friends – This a collection of some of the many friends I have made from around the world through Facebook.

Interesting People – These are people I find interesting. They aren’t necessarily famous interesting people, because those are boring. These are more like people who are doing interesting things.

Favorite Politicians – This is a collection of off-beat politicians I find interesting. I am one of the few people I know who follows politics because it is funny. That probably says more about my sense of humor than the state of the world.

So that is what this web site is about. If it sounds interesting, wander about. If you’re inclined, let me know what you think.

If you have any reactions, please feel free to send me a message. I’d love to hear from you.

Welcome Video

This is a little video to welcome you to my web site.

In it I give a very brief introduction to what the web site is all about. For the most part, the real purpose is to give you a glimpse of the guy behind the scenes. I thought it would humanize the web site a bit.
